I guess it comes down to that, when I say 0.3 I mean 0.3, and SAGE assumes that I mean (5404319552844595/18014398509481984). My expectation was misguided, I see, but I think it's fairly standard. And the first warning to that effect shouldn't be wildly incorrect results (already discussed). --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-support@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to sage-support-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-support URL: http://www.sagemath.org -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
